John Ronald Feaks in Spain

Can anybody help me with my great grandfather John Ronald Feaks 1866-1920. He married Helen Grace Turner in 1894 and lived in London. Three children Grace Edna, Iva and Jack. The 1911 Census suggests he was born in Long Acre London however I cannot find any records of his life prior to 1894. His father was also called John Ronald Feaks and I believe his mother may have been Spanish. He may have also served in the Spanish Navy. Did he spend his early life in Spain? If anyone knows anything about any of this I would be so grateful.
